I really think JD was upset at himself and probably snapped at the first person who said anything to him and it probably happened to be OC. I think this will be resolved seconds after the final out.

On 5 they just said OC was distracting Dye at the plate while OC was on base and Dye was pissed about it.

I don't know why Dye was pissed maybe he is just frustrated, OC did his job getting into 3rd base

UofCSoxFan

Maybe OC backed out of plans to invest in JD's Colombian baseball league?

(that's a reference to the pretty intense feud between Edgar Rentierra and OC....I guess if you have to explain it, it isn't that funny...oh well)

I don't know why Dye was pissed maybe he is just frustrated, OC did his job getting into 3rd base

I think frustration has a lot to do with it. That AB made him 0-10 in two games this series. Cabrera taking 3rd probaby did distract him, but getting into 3rd with 1 out trumps that, as Hawk said. Now if OC had done it with 2 outs (where moving up 90 feet wouldn't be worth putting the batter down 0-2) then JD would maybe have a beef.

Like someone else said, you have a lot of different personalities and not everyone will get along perfectly. This really is a non-issue. The fact that we won this game will help both parties move on as well.

No kidding.

Cabrera needs to chill. Dye is out of line though if he's mad at Cabrera for stealing the base. Dye is a major league hitter who needs to put that out of his mind and hit the ball.

BainesHOF

07-09-2008, 11:58 PM

Cabrera is wrong 95 percent of the time when he dances off second base. He distracts hitters all the time. In this case, though, he was right, as he actually had a purpose when he stole third.

My guess is that Dye has been so conditioned to get mad at Cabrera for his dancing that Dye forgot that Cabrera actually had a purpose this time.

Rocky Soprano

Dye was just on Comcast Sportsnite and he said it was a big misunderstanding and that everything is fine. He refused to say exactly what happened. The interview was in the clubhouse, the music was loud, and you could hear someone singing/yelling. They are having some fun!

I'm sure JD was frustrated by his performance in this series, especially with all the hype going on about the ASG, planes, banners, etc. But during the interview Dye failed to make a federal case out of the situation and that is where we should leave it.

If I recall correctly, the Rays, cubs and Red Sox had some internal issues some weeks ago. http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/violent001.gif It happens on the best of teams as well as the worst of teams.

From the clips I saw, Wise more or less put his arm around OC and they walked away. I would hardly call it "restraining."

Also when going over game highlights ESPN did not mention any of the "incident." Just talked about the Sox win.

It happens on every team probably weekly if not more. These guys are huge competitors and have fire. They normally make up. I've seen worse arguments in softball games. People always make a much bigger deal out of these things than they are.

White Sox:

Just FYI, that choice of word wasn't mine, just quoting directly from Mark's blog and that was the word he used.

Yeah Dye couldn't control himself and let the emotions get the best of him.

OC has been very solid for us. Dye is standard at golfing at strike 3 with RISP. And Dye is not an All-Star over any of our pitchers. Sorry Sox fans, I am not voting at all. Dye is as good as Crede who is also not an all-star this year.

AJ, Danks, Floyd and Bobby are all-stars besides Carlos. If anyone has a problem with that....I'm here to debate.

Going 0-10 when you are in the running for the last All-Star spot has got to be frustrating. I'm sure Dye is frustrated and I'm sure he said something curt to OC.

Here's a recipe for fighting.

Take guys from all over the hemisphere,
all intense athletes conditioned to success,
people who've trained literally all their lives to be where they are

Toss them together for six months
sprinkle in a competitive race
lace with a tricky late-inning situation

and you'll get disagreements.

The only reason I don't know more about this topic is that in my Japanese league, all arguements ended when I interposed myself.

Dye being an all-star doesn't have anything to do with our pitchers being all-stars. If you look at Dye's numbers compared to the other AL outfielders then he should be an allstar. He is 4th in HR - Sizemore, Hamilton and Quentin are ahead of him - all are all-stars, he is 9th in rbis and BA and 4th in Slugging percentage. That's why I think he should be an allstar.

Let's debate because Danks and Dye are All Stars before anyone else on this team. Your blind hate for the guy just seeps through. We had to hear about how he sucked in April, then you disappeared until Dye does something stupid just to take a rip at him.

Um... riiight. Numbers alone should tell you different, but since I'm a big advocate at looking at how the guy plays rather than just the numbers, judging from their performances this year, Dye has played better. Period.

How does AJ, Danks, Floyd and Jenks being deserving All Stars have anything to do with if Dye deserves it or not? Can't they all deserve it? Which by the way, Dye is pretty deserving. Cabrera is a solid player, but I think Dye has done more for the team this season (not that it really matters, arguing who is better is stupid and pointless as they have different roles and expectations on the team).

Yep. Dye said it wasn't necessarily the stolen base. I think it was Cabrera jumping around before he took off. Dye probably said something like, "if you're going to steal the base, then steal the base. Don't start jumping around distracting me." Something along those lines, with an angry tone.
